HC Deb 08 April 1949 vol 463 cc218-9W
Sir R. Glyn

asked the Minister of Health if he will give in the form of a table particulars of the authorities and private companies supplying water to residents within the Thames Catchment area; what are the charges made by each, respectively; what cost is involved by the schemes for extension which have been severally submitted to him; and how many of these authorities and companies obtain water from the River Thames direct.

Mr. Bevan

I regret that the information is not readily available. The work involved in supplying it would not, in my view, be justified by the results.
